Red Alert was is westwoods third rts (real time strategy) title, and a prequell to the smash-hit
command and conquer. Einstein managed to go back in time and eliminate Hitler, instead allowing Stalin
to te big threath to the rest of Europe.
As allways, westwood has made a great game and Red alert has great videos, sound and music,
has a deep intruiging story line plus a superb gaming experience. (acctually I'm hoping that one day someone
from westwood will come and see all this and pay me bigtime for all my advertising...)
You are a military commander and you get different missions as the plot unfolds. Most of the time you
are to set up a base and the annihilate the enemy. The game is played out of a isometric view
and the main issue in it is to have efficient resource management and to develop good strategys
to use in combat.
There are several different units, and the two sides have their own units with personal cons and pros
wich allows for quite advanced tactics.
